Just heard, long-time rappers Run DMC's Vinyl spinner "Jam Master Jay" has been gunned down in New York.... now I'm not a huge rap fan at all, I personally reckon most of it is crap,,, too much preaching violence and rubbish, but with Run DMC it was never like that and it's sad that it always happens to the good guys.... more talent wasted in a wasted society... how sad

"its like that.... thats just the way it is"

Most gutted.. I've still got "Walk this Way" on a 45vinyl somewhere.. their music shaped a part of my youth.. what a shame

Yep, read that this morning, very sad.

Especially seeing as they had just dusted off the Adidas for a comeback.

I dont really care about all this east coast v's west coast business for all it matters to me Biggy Smalls could have eaten Two Pack, or Tupac or whatever his name was (the rapper, not the paint) but when the decent acts of old check out its just not nice.

Very sad, especially since they also kick-started Aerosmiths comeback!

Run DMC said: We are not thugs, we don't use drugs but you assume on your own
They offer coke and lots of dope but we just leave it alone
It's like that y'all, y'all, but we don't quit
You keep on rock shock! 'Cause this is it...


If any other rapper used that line they'd be laughed off the streets, Run DMC weren't.... guess that was their talent... I hope that they can rise above this and carry on with their planned revival

Thats justification enough for all of them to be shot (IMHO)

Its a shame,

but it seems to be part of the US gang culture- obviously you don't want to get killed, but they somehow accept it.

I don't get it. Really I don't...

Wasn't it Aerosmith that kick-started them?

Thats a bit harsh! I can see Will or Gareth inspiring that sort of feeling but Aerosmith!?! Each to their own I suppose...

Shootings too good for Will & Gareth, being eaten alive by pigs is more what I have in mind for them......

Skin 'em and roll them in salt, then vinegar.

Are you saying that Jay being shot in the head is a good thing because you don't like the music?
